« on: August 20, 2006, 12:05:09 AM »
Elbox has well hidden their small update about Dragon in their pages, since I noticed this update at aw.net:

Looks promising to me. There's a link to an old picture of the card right above it.

maybe they finally have some things up and running.

Hmm... there is a few pictures already - what would really make a difference, is showing it in action for broader audience and ofcourse - release!  :-P

Nevertheless, is nice to see even little progress - considering what many think about Dragon, we can only be positively suprised. As th old saying for pessimists goes, pessimist can be happier than optimist - optimist can get depressed, if things don't goes as they should, while pessimist can only get positively suprised. In Amigaland this is more than near the truth.

Update (01 August 2006): On 27 July 2006 we had presentation of DRAGON 1200 for a Freescale Inc. representative who visited Elbox Computer. The DRAGON 1200-based system on presentation was fitted with the Radeon 9200 AGP graphic card, the Fast Ethernet network card, the Hi-Speed USB and TV tuner cards, all working under AmigaOS 3.9.

Some old pictures of production version:
